The Edmond J. Safra Synagogue is completed in limestone and granite
Building Studio Architects spent ten years designing the synagogue at 2085 Ocean Parkway, with interiors by Ovadia Design Group, and it was completed in September 2023. Built of limestone and granite, it echoes Brooklyn's grand civic buildings of the 1920s and 1930s, with Art Deco and neo-Classical proportions and Moderne details. Rabbi Eli Mansour and Rabbi Nathan Escava lead the congregation, which was founded in 2005.
“The synagogue building was designed over a period of ten years, by Building Studio Architects, with the interior design completed by Ovadia Design Group.”
